Candidates' Support for SIU Charter

Posted by Alice Struthers193sc on April 25, 2016

In February 2016, Scotland in Union launched a 5-point Holyrood charter. Our charter appeals to all candidates for the Holyrood elections to sign up to a more respectful and decent politics, moving on from the 2014 referendum to use the powers our politicians now have as best they can.

We have contacted all five of the main parties with elected representatives at Holyrood to ask them to take a look and to sign up if they agreed with the principles.

So far 75 candidates have signed, including the leaders of the Scottish Conservative and Scottish Liberal Democrat parties. If you are a candidate and would like to sign it too, please contact us and we will add your name. The full list of candidates who support our charter (in alphabetical order) is here:
